In reply Milnthorpe set off in a hurry as Pennington struck the third ball of the innings for six.

Peter Wilson (3-14) and Dave Jack (2-12) soon began to pick up wickets, however, aided by some sharp catches in the field.

Rowan Upton (2-25) dismissed Mike Wills before the curtain came down on the 2016 season as Milnthorpe skipper Steve Bowman (28) was the last wicket to fall, caught at mid-wicket off the bowling of his opposite number Paul Yates.
